What people say about us

Tess Lamb was engaged to find us a dream house in the West Berkshire area recently and she threw herself into the role with a meticulous methodology; interviewing both my partner and I and working out what was required. She provided us with a short list of very attractive properties from which we chose several to pursue.
Throughout her professionalism was always at the forefront and her sense of humor came in very handy when we hit the odd bump in the road.
Since purchasing our dream house, Tess has continued to be in touch ,for which we are grateful.
She is one of a kind and very good at her job.
— Sir Lenny Henry - Berkshire

We chose Tess because we wanted to move out of London quickly and needed someone super responsive who knew Oxfordshire inside out. Tess was fantastic, she understood what we were looking for straight away, found us a range of lovely properties very quickly and was totally on top of the sales and moving process. The whole thing took less than six months from start to finish. She took the stress out of everything and nothing was too much trouble. We would definitely recommend her.

Tess was absolutely incredible in helping me find my house – she understood what my dream house and did not stop until she found it, supporting me throughout and never exceeding
my expectations….totally brilliant service in every way, I would thoroughly recommend her to anyone
— Mr R Mcgill - Hampshire

We used Tessa Lamb to find us a home in 3 different counties for 3 different potential schools
whilst we were living overseas. We were aware that we had cast the net wide but Tess managed to show us good and relevant rentals all within the brief and she did it with aplomb. I would definitely recommend her services to any families looking to rent high calibre homes.

Professional, friendly and efficient. We had been searching the property market for about 12 months when we were introduced to TL. We were very specific with our requirements so I was amazed it took such little time for Tessa to find the perfect property for us. Tessa had previewed the property beforehand and knew exactly how the property would work for us. I highly recommend Tessa Lamb Property Acquisitions and Relocation services.

We began looking for houses in and around Henley, and widened our search out to West Berkshire.  We realised and understood that it was not going to be an easy process.  Tessa Lamb’s name was given to us after we had spent 4 months travelling from France to England, dealing with Estate Agents, at this stage we realised that we needed someone to source the market.  This was the first time that we ever contemplated asking anyone to find a home for us.  From day one when we met Tess, her enthusiasm and willingness was so great, it filled us with so much confidence.  We gave her our brief - with what we did not want to see or waste our time and her time and within days Tessa came up with the house we have bought and are so happy with.  This process saved us so much money as we would have been going backwards and forwards such a lot.  It can be a very difficult decision to engage someone to find you a property but all I can say to you is Tess ticked all the boxes, she was there throughout the buying process, she continued with all the local information which was such a wonderful help to us.  Magic Lady!
— Keith & Una White - Henley

Tessa was worth more than double her fee.  We gave her a very short time slot to find us a gorgeous house.  Not an easy find in a very competitive market.  She listened to our brief carefully and showed us a few great house that matched.  She managed to unearth an absolute gem way before it went to market and crucially before anyone else knew about it, due to her excellent contacts.  We are now happily ensconsed in out dream home.  Tessa does all of this with a cheerfulness and kindness that goes beyond the brief.  She has also helped to find us a cleaner, a gardner and playdates for the boys.

Tess worked for us between February 2017 and the Summer of 2018. Our brief was to find our ‘forever home’. At the start of the search my husband and I had a broad location area and a fizzy, wispy idea of ‘forever home’ criteria. Tess was excellent at sharpening our home ideas and sharpening our ‘daily life’ wish list. Tess’s energy and professional acumen enabled us to tackle our property search with confidence.
At our meetings Tess not only showed us criteria-meeting properties but also placed the property in a highly accessible location context for us: this property would equal that nursery, prep school, shopping facilities and countryside experience. Through detailed local knowledge Tess provided us with a picture of our future day-to-day life, not just our future home. Her ability to do this was invaluable in enabling us to make a confident final choice.
The end of our story is that we are about to move into our beautiful ‘forever home’ – and we have complete peace of mind about this massive life investment. We know we’ve seen all the options, all the alternatives, and this home is without doubt our match. Tess has been a tireless, exceptional force at each stage of the process, from initial property investigation to negotiation of the purchase.
After initially feeling rather overwhelmed with the task of moving our family, joining forces with Tess was like joining the A Team. The energy, fun and killer instinct she brought made this process exciting and enjoyable. I pity the fool who doesn’t have her!
— Mr & Mrs Mackenzie, Berkshire

Tessa was an absolute delight to work with from start to finish. She couldn’t have been more helpful and efficient. She never wasted any time showing us unsuitable properties and very quickly found us the perfect rental house which hadn’t yet hit the open market. She also went way above and beyond in terms of helping with extra services. This was invaluable at an incredibly stressful time while I was trying to coordinate an international move with three children all moving to a new school in the UK from Asia. I can’t recommend her highly enough.
— Mr & Mrs Bolton - Hampshire

If you are looking to find that perfect new home – look no further than Tessa Lamb. I found her extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic and more importantly, very well connected within the property market.
We were always one of the first through the door and way before the agents had the property in their window.
She quickly understands what your requirements are and does not waste your time looking at unsuitable properties.
Once Tessa has found your home, she does not stop working. Recommending Interior designers, builders and even cleaners as well as being totally up to speed on the local schools and pubs!!
I would recommend Tessa Lamb to anyone.
— Mr & Mrs Parkinson - Oxfordshire

We met Tessa in a very difficult moment because we had just a month to find a house to let for a family of 7 and she was able to organize it in just a week.
She’s very professional, enthusiastic and make feel us very confident from the beginning.
We use to joke because for us she has been like the genius of the lamp!
— Sonia & Olga Lopez - Oxfordshire

I was put in touch with Tessa through Timothy James Partnership. Following the death of a very dear friend, I needed to make changes and make them fast. I was abroad at the time, and my movements were extremely limited. Whilst I could look at properties online I couldn’t see how to, organise viewings in large enough quantities or for the right properties. My heart sunk at the thought of all those explanatory phone calls to different agents arranging all the timings for visits. I didn’t know the area I was moving to particularly well and imagined months and months slipping away in fruitless trips.
As soon as I spoke to Tess I knew I would be in good hands: she was extremely knowledgeable of the area, the nature of towns and villages and their links, the market and housing stock. Whilst the added costs in hiring her seemed quite costly, in doing what she said she could do she more than paid for herself in the long run.
We made a few trips all beautifully staggered across a wide area. There were surprises-both good and bad, but Tess listened very carefully and kept zeroing in on what might work for me.
Having found the house I now live in happily, Tess acted as a negotiator and did a very good job at that too. At quite a late stage she even walked the neighbourhood to ask questions on my behalf and found the answers I needed.
Come moving day Tess was there with a very welcome bacon sandwich and a cup of coffee and an encouraging laugh.
I think Tess really enjoys what she does and like many people who do what they enjoy doing, does it extremely well. I couldn’t have achieved what I wanted in the time available without her support.
I couldn’t recommend her more highly.
